Hi there,

My wife and I will be in St. Petersburg for three days in August, and we want to go to Helsinki by train after that. My questions are:

- From which station do the trains leave?

- Where can we buy tickets?

- How much do tickets cost?

Thanks

Two trains a day leave from Finland Station and one from Ladozsky station. Tickets can be bought from the station ticket counters and several ticket offices in the city center, one being next to Kazan Cathedral on Griboedova Canal. Tickets are about $60
